The book I'm writing now, my next LBD called Just Look at Me Now, I had a song in mind called Love Scenes by Beverley Craven which I thought would be the song but then driving to my day job I heard Breakfast at Tiffany's and I 'knew' that was the one.

I hope you have had a wonderful day.<br />Interesting about the play list, do you choose the music after you have an idea for a scene, or do you hear a song and it sparks an idea?jane armsteadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11147054.post-67058877511364352010-02-08T17:26:36.932+00:002010-02-08T17:26:36.932+00:00Happy Birthday/release day Nell!

Hope you have (had?) a marvellous day.<br /><br />I'm way behind on reading, as I'm busy writing to a deadline, so the only soundtracks in my head relate to my own books. <br /><br />For the hero of my previous book, Dark Country, the hero's theme songs were definitely early '80s Waterboys - especially A Pagan Place. All that raw male energy fitted him perfectly ;-)<br /><br />My current hero is intense rather than raw, with a lot going on beneath a polished surface. Iris from the Goo Goo Dolls fits him pretty darn well :-)<br /><br />I'd better get back to the writing - and give him some more trouble to be intense about, and crack that surface control!Bronwyn Parryhttp://bronwynparry.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11147054.post-18891225282347444672010-02-08T11:17:02.791+00:002010-02-08T11:17:02.791+00:00Nell, haven't had my caffeine yet this morning...Nell, haven't had my caffeine yet this morning so am clueless on songs though I do have a "life" playlist full of country songs for really down days LOL.

Have a really great day.<br />I've been thinking about the soundtracks to books and the music that accompanies 'Blue Remembered Heels' are Elvis Costellos 'Watching the Detectives' (because of the lovely Mike) and 'Accidents will Happen' (as Abbey was stuck by lightening)also I can't miss out 'Brilliant Disguise' by Bruse Springsteen<br />Hopefully other people will have better ideas than that!Emma Stokesnoreply@blogger.com
